One minute… 5 minutes… 10 minutes… 15 minutes… 20 minutes… Hey! What is going on here? Why is my computer taking such a long time to process my graphical file? Does Photoshop program always take so long to process a simple file? Something is definitely not right here. I think I should troubleshoot this problem once and for all to get my programs running smoothly.
Bingo! I think I have found the faults behind the laggings of my computer. I barely have 2GB of hard disc space left in my computer system and I am processing a file as heavy as 100MB. I was so foolish not to have realized the limited working space I have left. Moreover, I should have upgraded my computer memory long time ago. 512MB of RAM was just not good enough if I were to process graphical files or even playing with some online games.
I do not know why it took me so long to find out that adding more RAM will ease my lagging problems. Now I know why. My graphic software required a place to do a lot of calculations and my computer memory was not enough to support that. Eventually my computer decided to switch to using virtual memory from my hard disc and my hard disc space was barely enough for it to process any faster. Moreover, a RAM can transfer as fast as a few gigabytes per second of data whereas the virtual memory can handle only a few megabytes per second of data. Now you know the reasons why my computer lagged so badly. Don’t learn the hard way as I did. Get your computer memory upgraded soonest possible.

video card
I have been having numerous problems with my video card recently. Without any alert, my computer would just reboot itself without allowing me to save whatever I was working on. The worst scenario was when I was in the height of playing some exciting online games. That really got me real crossed as I was not able to save the stage I was in when this happened.
In the end, I was forced to fall back to my built-in video card which was not giving me the clarity and performance as I wanted. I was contemplating to replace my video card with the same model and make. Somehow as I was checking through the wide range of video cards being displayed in the shop, something caught my eyes. It was something that is red and black and with an impressive and sophisticated outlook. That was when I fell in love with the new VisionTek Radeon HD 4870 video card.
The ATI Radeon HD 4870 Series GPUs claimed to deliver a cinematic gaming experience with unprecedented performance and it definitely promised what it claimed. On top of the overwhelming performance I had, I was able to watch Blu-ray movies and play HD content with incredible visual fidelity. Wow! Playing my usual game had never been that smooth before until I had purchased the Radeon HD 4870 Series. I had amazing new experiences with my new video card. Why don’t you get one and try it out yourself? I can assure you that you would not regret buying one.

I have my nephew and nieces coming over this weekend but I have one major problem. How am I going to entertain them? My house has no children board games. Neither do I have any toys for them to play with. Letting them use my computer for playing online games will surely be out of the idea as I have all my work backups there. One wrong move and all my lifetime work would be gone.
Maybe it’s time I should consider purchasing a Sony PS2 for the house. At least I can relax myself by playing one or two games too when I felt stress at work. Did you know that the Sony PlayStation had advanced so much that it has multiple functions now? You can anytime use PS CDROM, PS2 CDROM, PS2 DVDROM, or play Audio CD. On top of that, you can also play DVD Video where it is in DVDR or DVDRW formats. Isn’t it wonderful to have the all-in-one gadget in the house?
I wonder what PS2 games are available in the market now. I think I should get Half Life since I have not been playing the game for ages. Cabela’s Big Game Hunter and UEFA EURO 2008 might be fun to have too. I guessed I should head down to town now to get the discs before the shop closes.

I have been thinking for a long time whether to get myself the Apple third generation iPod Nano Silver with 4GB of memory for ages. I saw one great deal in one of the online stores a few days back but I was still contemplating. When I have decided to check out the site to purchase the iPod today, the item was out of stock. Haiz! I missed it again! I do not know why I have been in such an indecisive mood all the time after encountering similar problem not once but many times in my life. Why can’t I learn my lesson that time waits for no one?
Sometimes, it is good to survey the online market for best deals but taking your own sweet time in checking and making a decision will not help you to get what you wanted. I am one typical case. If you see a best buy, just go for it. Do not ever waste time in making your decision. See what happened to me now? Instead of saving $90 if I bought the iPod then, now I have to foot out another $90 to buy it from elsewhere. Don’t you think that I am such a time waster? Worst still, I have to pay more on delivery charges now when the previous company has waived off the fees.
What a life! I better buck up from being such a time waster in life. Luckily, that was just an item. What if that was a golden opportunity that would make me rich for my whole life? If I were to sit and wait again, I would forever be in the average income group. If you have the habit of accepting failures without even considering any rectifications, then there would not be a better tomorrow in your whole life. You have to change the mindset to be more positive and stern in making decision. Please remember that an opportunity hardly knocks on you door twice. If you have a decision to make, take a strong stand and decide it fast. Go for it without wasting more time.
